    Look at build!
    Yea I didn't get the model specific one. I just went in and found the biggest one I could get that fit my tray and had top an side post. Like it do far! Used the winch one time with it. I don't have near the lights you do but with all mine on at the same time and one amp going it dropped .3v idling.

    I'll probably look into either having my alt re built or getting a totally new one to compensate for the accessories but that's down the road. I'm more concerned now with a new p/s pump for the SAS

    Where did you get the color matched ones? The dealer?

    No I actually painted them myself. I ordered the primer, color matched paint, and clear coat all from carid...I'm very happy with how they turned out. Match up perfectly and I did a good job on painting. The paint is duplicolor and sprays out really nicely and dries quick!

    Nice. Thanks. I'm about to color match some pieces once it's warm enough. Good to know that duplicolor is a good match.

    Dang man thats pretty good. When i used to use my stereo it would drop as low as 10v from 14. Don't do that anymore.

    the lights drop it 1-1.3v though on stock alternator. Hoping that'll go away.

    :laugh:

    Anyone interested in a 38 lbs high torque flywheel from Lcengineering?

    Took it off today when I replaced my clutch and will be resurfacing it.

    Retails for $300

    I'm asking $230 after I resurface or $190 if you want it as is.

    For the 5vz only.

    With oem or aftermarket clutch kits, it's designed to help keep Roms high for power loss compensation with larger tires.


    I will post pics when I get home if needed.

    Don't need it, never booted or ran larger tires.

    My loss is someone's gain.

    I went full oem since this is my daily driver and I don't need race ready parts in it anymore.

    I had originally planned to have a second car and only use the truck on trails ect.

    Helps you keep power and engine momentum in all rpm range and allows for a larger tire than stock with a stock feel without bogging down.

    I had it paired with an URD stage 2 clutch for the last 65k

    The clutch is toast but the flywheel just needs a mild resurface.
